Front Carpool Drop-off and Pick-up Instructions
The driveway in front of the school is designated as the K– 5th gr. carpool drive. When delivering or picking up children at school, please drive and stop in a single file line in the parent drive next to the curb. Children MUST exit the vehicle on the curb side.
***We do not allow drop-off of a child(ren) from any vehicles in the second lane. This places children at HIGH risk of accident and injury at any time during arrival.***
·
Please remain in your vehicle and pull up to one of 8-10 designated stations. Several cars are loaded at once. Double parking in the drive is not allowed. We ask that you remain in your car and not walk across the drive to pick up your child. This causes added congestion, delays the loading of cars, and poses a safety hazard.
